Walkthrough

The user authentication setup documentation was restructured and modernized. Frontmatter metadata (title, sidebar configuration, table of contents, description, keywords, topics, updated date) was refreshed. The body content transitioned from a tile-based approach to a structured method-by-method guide, introducing environment-level configuration steps and detailed sections for Passwordless, Password, Social, Enterprise, and Custom authentication methods with updated provider links. The API section was retained with revised wording on managing connections.

Poem

🐰 The docs now flow, method by method with care,
From passwordless to custom, authentication's fair.
Environment setup guides the way forward and clear,
Mutual warnings and linked help appear.
A restructured guide, modern and bright! 🌟
